On the report: I didn’t know it was against the law to have your dad say hello to recruits. At least I’m not paying them. The NCAA should look into guys that are paying players and not worry about guys that are doing it the right way. That’s all I’ve got to say about that. Jiminy Christmas. I don’t care if my dad is a celebrity or not. I think it’s (expletive), honestly. The guy is my dad. If he wants to say hello to a recruit, he can. If we get reprimanded, fine. They need to check into guys that are outright cheating instead of nickel-dime stuff like that.

On if he knew a rule might be violated: No. You know. I didn’t think it was any big deal. It is what it is. Someone is always going to complain. That’s all it was. It was a quick hello on the phone and that was it. We recruited the heck out of the kids. He had nothing to do with that. I mean, he just was excited we were recruiting Indiana again and wanted to say hello to them and that was it.

On if his dad will talk to recruits in the future: Probably not now. (laughs). Not now. If it’s a reprimand and they tell us we can’t do it, I’m not going to go against the rules.
